SARS and COVID-19 are considered distinct diseases. Making a list of the two outbreaks caused by Severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronaviruses is probably not warranted? —St.nerol (talk) 08:49, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: it looks (partially) like an unnecessary copy/fork of Coronavirus § Outbreaks. Maybe we just need to add Severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus § Outbreaks? --MarioGom (talk) 09:16, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep and expand. Right now it reads pretty incomplete as well, but more details can be added. NavjotSR (talk) 09:50, 9 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- NO we should not expand this. No more outbreaks please. Natureium (talk) 23:41, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Comment. Other than the names, is there anything that connects the two SARS outbreaks? Are they distinct from MERS in some way? If it's just the name, then the inclusion criteria are arbitrary. i.e. outbreaks of diseases named SARS. Pburka (talk) 21:21, 10 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Outbreaks named SARS is an arbitrary and meaningless WP:LISTCRITERIA. pburka (talk) 23:45, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, is two things a list? No. >>BEANS X2^t 15:29, 11 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete unnecessary fork of existing content. Bondegezou (talk) 06:34, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Delete Two things does not a list make. There is no information here that can't be covered on the article about SARS. Natureium (talk) 23:40, 13 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
